Hello,

Here is my problem :

When I create my materials in Workbench, I do not always change the color and/or sometimes, we many materials, colors are similar
So, In Mechnaical, when I display the geometry with color corresponding to material, it's not always simple

My question :
Is there a python function which is affecting random color to all the material ?
If not, any idea on the approach I should try ?

Regards,
Jean

@Jean Are you asking a way to fix color of bodies based on material?

@Rajesh Meena : I would like to generate random color for all material I had in the material database in Workbench.

Il this example, you can see 4 materials with similar colors. I would like to developp a function for changing all the color and for getting random (different) color for each material.
